If someone have this wheels on a 996tt, please post a picture !

 

Hey Sandvik996tt,
Thanks for the link, but these are the stock wheels for the Carrera S. The wheel set I am planning on buying is BBS 19's that was ordered for 997 Carrera S. Here is the link for it, thanks...

They should fit with spacers if they are the same as 997 TT offsets.

 

The offsets are not the same as a 997tt, you may get away with it if you use a 17mm factory spacer at the rear.

 

996TT wheels have the same widht but those offsets are a bit off(996TT has ET50 front, ET45 rear)

So if you want to have the same look with those you need big 22mm spacers in rear and 7mm in front...Or even more would be suitable...I would get something with less offset to begin with.

 

Most RUF widebody wheels require spacers. I'm not sure why so many people are against them. They're fine IMO.

 

Don't get me wrong, I agree with you and use them even myself.

But what I don't like much is huge spacers, for example good spacers for these exact 11x19" ET67 wheels in a 996TT would be something like 39mm each in rear! (In my opinion, that way the would flush nicely with fenders with "ET28")...and that's quite big piece of metal (but still doable so no worries)...
